When is your Independence Day?

Sunday, August 17th 2008, Indonesia celebrates Independence Day.

Yes, we have ceremony, celebration, marching, pictures, logo, colors, duct tape, flower pot, jokes and games. We even have lunar eclipse and gold medal. Some bloggers write Merdeka, with question mark and with exclamation mark. Some try to find meaning, some rant, some ask questions, questions and more question. Some want their Indonesia back, and other simply write a reflection. The rest said proudly, “Happy Birthday, Indonesia!

With 63 years from 1945-2008, Indonesian people still struggle to find independence in their existence, in choosing their new leader, and in their work. Indonesian people never stop struggling to find their own independence. When they feel free at last. From poverty, from oppression, and from injustice. When is your personal Independence Day?

Mine is June 21st, 2008.
